Abstract: Shagawa Lake, Minn., received direct discharges of municipal wastewater for nearly 80 years and attained annual average total phosphorus concentrations of 30–60 μg/L. A tertiary wastewater-treatment facility was constructed ...

Abstract: The concentrations of dissolved oxygen and chlorophyll have declined in the Seneca River, New York since 1991 as a result of zebra mussel respiration and filtering. Recently measured data were used to approximate flux rates ...

Abstract: Simple budget models and correlations have been useful in providing order-of-magnitude estimates of eutrophication variables and toxic organic chemicals in lakes and reservoirs. A similar approach is used here to develop ...

Abstract: This paper presents a phosphorus budget and modeling case study for Big Platte Lake Michigan and the Platte River watershed. These analyses are a necessary component of a credible total maximum daily load (TMDL) for Big ...

Abstract: This paper presents a cost‐benefit analysis for alternative programs intended for the control of the nuisance growth of an attached alga

Abstract: The validation of a water-quality model for the Seneca River, a deep, stratifying, slow-moving river located in central New York, is documented. Model validation is supported by comprehensive field monitoring and kinetic ...

Abstract: A mathematical model is developed to estimate trihalomethane formation potential (THMFP) in Lake Youngs, Wash. The model simulates both seasonal trends and spatial variations. The model kinetic framework includes total ...
